Patient Reviews
Nov 08, 2017
Dr. Cortez became my mother's nephrologist after she moved to the area. Her kidneys were at stage 5 Kidney failure and she was put on dialysis. Before seeing her in the hospital, Dr. Cortez took the time to read ALL her records from other hospitals. My mother's previous nephrologist (in another state) had said that kidney stents are not proven to work, etc. and wouldn't recommend them. Dr. Cortez did recommend the stents and now NO dialysis! He is a problem solver and a lifesaver for my mom.
